four or five days
When talking about ancient towns, everyone talks about Zhouzhuang, Xitang, Wuzhen and Zhujiajiao.

Wait, it doesn’t make much sense to keep repeating the water town.
I would rather go to Mudu. Just outside Suzhou, you can fully enjoy the scenery and culture of Jiangnan in four or five days.
And it's very economical.
/Day 1: Morning: Take the high-speed train from Shanghai (30~40 yuan) to Suzhou, and then to Mudu (45 minutes by bus, 20 minutes by taxi) Afternoon: Buy a combined ticket to visit all the attractions, wear ancient costumes, and take photos
Night: Stay overnight in Mudu. The next day: Morning: Make up for the places you missed yesterday. Return to Suzhou city and pass by the Tang Bohu Memorial Hall.
Afternoon: First check into a hotel near Guanqian Street (prices range from 80 to 300 yuan), put down your luggage, and then go to the Humble Administrator’s Garden (60 yuan) and the Suzhou Museum (free), the last masterpiece of the world’s architect Pei Lüming.
Evening: Have dinner at Guanqian Street: Lao Ma Rice Noodles (10~20 yuan) or Songhelou (30~60 yuan). Visit the night market. Suzhou is famous for its pastries: Caizhizhai, Huangtianyuan, and Daoxiangcun.
